oodles of noodles

Chemist by day, rolling in my animal zoo by night...and morning and afternoon and also day. This blog will mostly feature my main hobby: snakes!

Four cute little O.t. ridleyi hatched about a week ago! 🤗 Love these sassy wigglers!

This pink lady is a runner, so it's usually quite a challenge to get nice photos of her. But I finally managed to snag a few quick shots the other day - she sat still for literally 30 seconds before taking off like a bullet lol.

She's bounced back great after her litter last fall, I'm very proud of her!

Sire of my recent litter! He's so handsome and sweet, and at 4.5 ft he's rocking that petite dwarf boa size!

First litter of 2023 dropped last night! Brimstone had 5 super-active little wigglers (seriously these kids were going everywhere, haha), and while I didn't hit on the blood/leo combo, she did prove out het for both!

Pairing was Brim (hypo het blood and leopard) x Blackthorn (blood het leo).

Hi. Nice amarali. I was wondering if you are able to export to Canada? Thank you for your time. Denis

Hello, thank you! Unfortunately I am not currently able to ship internationally, sorry ☹️

This fine lady really shows off the blend of BI and BCC traits that you get with the Barranquilla locality (a naturally-occurring integrade).

She's getting sooo yellow!

And to finish off my BCA photo spam 😊 here's some individual shots of my Aug 28 litter 🤗 These little ones are doing so well, they're two sheds in and have so much personality!

(NFS currently, but I'll be letting some go in the spring.)

These are my holdbacks from my 2018 and 2020 BCA litters (both were Cyan Sunday x Smoke). Three full siblings, three completely different looks!

This girl is really something...!

Daybreak, 2019 Bolivian Silverback BCA (Miller line)

[scarletandgreyexotics]

I keep going back and forth about putting this fella up for sale... His genetics are so well represented in my group that I don't have reason to breed him again anytime soon (I don't like breeding "just because"), but he’s in his prime and REALLY wants the ladies.

But then I pull him out and I can't bear to let him go lol.

Smoke, 2015 Bolivian BCA (Terry line)

[scarletandgreyexotics]

I'm very pleased with how this guy is growing up! He's stayed a very nice silver tone, and I love those starry saddle shapes.

This queen is bouncing back wonderfully from her recent litter! You're probably not supposed to pick favorites, but she is mine 💕

Cyan Sunday, 2010 Bolivian BCA

Finally took some long-overdue shots of Scarface! He's the sire of my BCA litter from a couple months back - big congrats to this first-time dad 😊

Random Q: Have you seen A Perfect Circle in concert? Snake related Q: Will you have any aneery longicauda in the future?

I haven't, but I have seen both Tool and Puscifer live a few times (they're Maynard James Keenan's other two bands for those who might be unfamiliar), and I would love to see APC one day too! MJK puts on a stellar show!

(Anon I am going to assume you noticed most of my snakes are named after his music hehe 🤗)

I was REALLY hoping to have anery longis this year, but my anery girl slugged out 😔 I'm giving her this next season off for some R&R, fingers crossed it'll go better next time!
